A Great Escape from the Bay of Bengal ''Super Sapphire-Phailin'' Tropical Cyclone: A Case of Improved Weather Forecast and Societal Response for Disaster Mitigation

Abstract: The very severe cyclonic storm (VSCS) “Phailin (2013)” was the strongest cyclone that hit the eastern coast of the India Odisha state since the supercyclone of 1999. But the same story of casualties was not repeated as that of 1999 where approximately 10 000 fatalities were reported. In the case of Phailin, a record 1 million people were evacuated across 18 000 villages in both the Odisha and Andhra Pradesh states to coastal shelters following the improved operational forecast guidance that benefited from highly skillful and accurate numerical model guidance for the movement, intensity, rainfall, and storm surge. Thus, the property damage and death toll were minimized through the proactive involvement of three-tier disaster management agencies at central, state, and district levels.

Search for Low Mass Vector Resonances Decaying to Quark-Antiquark Pairs in Proton-Proton Collisions at s =13 TeV

Abstract: A search for low mass narrow vector resonances decaying into quark-antiquark pairs is presented The analysis is based on data collected in 2017 with the CMS detector at the LHC in proton-proton collisions at a center-of-mass energy of 13 TeV, corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 411 fb-1 The results of this analysis are combined with those of an earlier analysis based on data collected at the same collision energy in 2016, corresponding to 359 fb-1 Signal candidates will be recoiling against initial state radiation and are identified as energetic, large-radius jets with two pronged substructure The invariant jet mass spectrum is probed for a potential narrow peaking signal over a smoothly falling background No evidence for such resonances is observed within the mass range of 50–450 GeV Upper limits at the 95% confidence level are set on the coupling of narrow resonances to quarks, as a function of the resonance mass For masses between 50 and 300 GeV these are the most sensitive limits to date This analysis extends the earlier search to a mass range of 300–450 GeV, which is probed for the first time with jet substructure techniques
